On Wednesday the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide, OYC, has called for a forensic investigation into the remote cause of the fire at the office of the Accountant General of the Federation.
Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide accused those it described as political musketeers of attempting to destroy the database of the Accountant General of the Federation’s office so as to conceal billions of naira stolen from the Federal Government palliative fund for Coronavirus.
